Verify Microsoft Message Queuing availability and access#

When to use this procedure#

Use for Microsoft Message Queuing action events.

This procedure applies to EventReporter.

Use an account that can read the product configuration and Windows diagnostic state.
Replace angle-bracket placeholders with values from the affected system.

Configuration Client > RuleSets > affected ruleset > rule > Send to Microsoft Message Queuing action.

Record exact private/public queue path, transactional mode, and product service account.

Expected result: The affected object and its effective settings are identified.

If it fails: Return to the complete Event Log detail and configuration export before changing settings.
Run the native Windows checks below from the affected product host.
```
Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName MSMQ* | Format-Table FeatureName,State
Get-Service -Name MSMQ | Format-List Status,StartType
```
Expected result: Required MSMQ components run and a unique product test reaches the intended queue once.

If it fails: Correct feature/service state, path, transaction mode, quota, network availability, or least-privilege send rights.
Perform one uniquely identifiable product test through the same service, rule, or action.

Expected result: The intended destination records the test exactly once.

If it fails: Collect the first new product event and bounded debug output; do not change unrelated settings.

Repeat the affected operation, confirm its positive output, and verify that queues, collection positions, or remote delivery continue normally.

The complete Event Log entry and neighboring product events with timestamps.
The command output, relevant configuration export, and bounded debug log from the same interval.
